First published in in 1976, Hermann Levin Goldschmidt's
Contradiction Set Free, (Freiheit fur den Widerspruch), reflects
the push to explore new forms of critical thinking that gained
momentum in the decade between Theodor Adorno's Negative Dialectics
of 1966 and Paul Feyerabend's Against Method in 1975. The book
articulates Goldschmidt's reclamation of an epistemologically
critical position that acknowledges the deep underlying link
between the modes of production of knowledge and the social and
political life they produce. In signalling a breakout from the
academic rut and its repressive hold, Goldschmidt pointed beyond
the ossified methods of a philosophical discourse whose oppressive
consequences could no longer be ignored.Contradiction Set Free
makes available for the first time in English a pivotal work by one
of the great critical thinkers of the 20th century.
